Effects of Possible Osteoporotic Conditions on the Recurrence of Chronic Subdural Hematoma.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The recurrence rate of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) has been reported to range from 2.3 to 33%. As bridging veins are composed of abundant collagen bundles and bone matrix, we aimed to investigate the possible associations between skull Hounsfield unit (HU) values and the recurrence of CSDH. We retrospectively enrolled patients with CSDH who underwent burr hole surgery. The HU values of the frontal skull were measured on brain CT scans. The cumulative hazard for recurrence was estimated according to predictive factors. To identify the independent predictors associated with the recurrence of CSDH, hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated using multivariate Cox regression analysis. A total of 208 consecutive patients who underwent burr hole trephination for CSDH over a 7-years period at a single institution were enrolled in this study. We found that age, greater midline shift (≥10.5 mm), lower skull HU (<769.5), and diabetes were independent predictors for the recurrence of CSDH (HR 1.06, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.00-1.12,
